In Flames - I Am Above I Singer Reacts I

[@ekto6]

In Flames is one of the greatest metal bands of all time.

[@romanflock1576]

My all time favorite!

[@amjan]

Definitely.

[@Gofex786]

🤘🤘

[@pabramsarch]

Yes, there is no other answer

[@hanseriksson5105]

Listen to orbit culture. An other great Swedish band

[@madfox58]

Fun fact: That's Martin Wallström, he plays a very important character in the Mr. Robot series, and he kinda has the same energy haha should totally check it out! And yes, sadly he's not the actual singer but a famous actor.

[@zombygoose]

I believe this actor really made this video more badass. It adds more feeling to the song. Like an outsider singing along

[@vloboxvlabox1338]

He is a fan of the band too

[@DominusAltmen]

Im glad I'm not the only one who knows that hahahahah I was hoping she would have realized but I assume this is her first time hearing this absolute tyrant of a band.

[@LaggMan]

I knew, I've seen him somewhere

[@angeliquecatherine8504]

Il y a un making of sur la réalisation du maquillage de l'acteur pour la vidéo... Cool. J'adore ce groupe

[@petrihalonen2855]

One of Swedens best bands, im wearing one of their t-shirt right now with - I'll be the ghost that haunts you in your sleep - on the back. Good reaction.

[@richardott877]

Im wearing the same one too, but I have all their shirts, hoodies wests and cds

[@cyberdan42]

I have seen them live multiple times, including recently at Summer Breeze. A truly amazing and first-class band.

[@Dannynr5]

Saw them first time about ten year ago on nova rock and multiple times since then. my last time was also summerbreeze and i LOVED their setlist! so much heavy and old stuff *_*

[@dethincarnate1149]

Saw them last September and once more back on the the First of 2012 dual-headline with Trivium...both excellent shows

[@Nellielsp]

My neighbour (now my husband) introduced me to them in 1999. It was love at firt hearing.

[@xiath6]

Well now you have to react to Meet your maker, Colony and Only for the weak. In Flames has a long history of absolute banger and their music style has changed quite a bit over time.

[@james6792-m1w]

And pure light of mind... not their best song but an absolute jam

[@Cthulu2020]

Trigger, discover me like emptiness, transparent. Tons of great music in their catalog.

[@Tank__1987]

Pinball Map!!!

[@peterhotho324]

Pinball map 😉 and many more from the old stuff

[@SaboSanz]

In Flames is my absolute favorite band. They have so much great songs. I would recommend you "My sweet shadow", a very unique song. 🔥🤘

[@pavelskosopalovs9514]

Could not agree more!

[@chrisstone-streetlightinte5629]

That song is devastating and beautiful.

[@ThallanarRabidtooth]

Anders' harsh vocals are absolutely unreal. I haven't heard anyone do them like he does. The tonality and extreme distortion is exactly how I would imagine someone being set on fire would sound if they screamed. Just pure agony bordering on coming apart into pure distortion. It's really amazing and perfectly incapsulates how I feel on the inside when I hear this band.

[@angeliquecatherine8504]

On est transpercé de part en part par la rage qu'il dégage dans son regard et par la prestation vocale d'Anders. Absolument époustouflant l'énergie dégagée dans ce titre 🖤 I like it 🤟

[@Nellielsp]

They are amazing, I listen to them since 1999

[@djentyman4002]

In Flames- Meet Your Maker Let’s make it happen!!

[@Schleykov500]

Please keep hitting crazy good songs like this.. lovely to see :)

[@cruznik099]

Finally! a In Flames song!!! And this song is just majestic for a first time video! Thank you for this one Ray!! You should get more in to the Swedish Melodic Death Metal, is gonna be an epic journey!

[@eideardpeschak7546]

That facial expression change when the chorus hit: beautifully authentic!

[@MadRhetoricX2]

Will support giving their track "Only For The Weak" a listen. Its got very poignant lyrics about mental health. But I'll also say some of my favorite songs of theirs are "Sober and Irrelevant" and "The Chosen Pessimist" because they showcase Anders' cleaner vocals which i actually love

[@wethepeople6642]

In Flames We Trust!!! 🤘

[@maxiplay3210]

InFlames is my favourite band of all time. I even have a big tattoo of the raven from the album cover to Sounds like a playground fading. The men in the music video isn't the singer btw. I believe its a swedish actor

[@dethincarnate1149]

I hope this starts a journey through all In Flames' music, whether it be personal or on KZbin, its definitely worth it

[@mesharkyvibes]

In flames has been my favorite band for years, I saw them live last year front row, I yelled out to Anders “you’re my hero” and he responded back “and that guys my hero too”. Gotta love it

[@aldaron1021]

That's the effect In Flames has on you, being 38 I started to listen to them exactly 18-19 years ago. Love your channel Dude ;P

[@BerishStarr]

Swedish Metal legends! They are a band that paved the way for so many. Seen them live multiple times, first one for me was in the mid 90's. React to "Alias" next 🤘❤

[@zombygoose]

No matter how many times I listen to in flames, I still get chills. One of my top favorite bands. And if you want a good song, stay with me by in flames is a must check out

[@sonofthesea3298]

This band didnt win me over,until i heard Cloud Connected by them,after that i have followed theyr new releases with huge interest. May i suggest a future live reaction with them? In Flames - When The World Explodes (ft. Emilia Feldt) I just know that you are gonna LOVE that performance. But hey,also feel free to check out the best possible sound and picture quality of a Cloud Connected performance (you will see me in the comment section praising the festival for the production): Open Flair Festival 2013 -- In Flames (Cloud Connected)

[@AgeofJP]

Cloud Connected is in the setlist of At Sticky Fingers and At Hammersmith...which are legendary in itself but mainly they're BY FAR the best live performances that Anders has put out where he absolutely nails every song. (they used these concerts to put together their In Live We Trust album) It was only 1-2 years before his vocal chords gave out and he had to get operation on them...while his studio vocals didn't suffer from it until the mid-2010s his live performances on the other hand were never the same since the operation

[@DMMoore1313]

Storytime: Had the pleasure of seeing In Flames in concert and during the show there was the best crowd surfing I've ever seen. There were always multiple people up and moving. Plus this was at a House of Blues where that thing is generally heavily policed. They were fantastic.

[@jc88hate]

There is another band that has a video filmed like this, I believe they did it first as well. It's a band called Parkway Drive, and the song is called Wishing Wells. You need to see it, it's amazing.

[@josoffat7649]

I saw these guys in Vancouver 20 years ago, such a good show.

[@richardpaulkirk3500]

In flames humble effortlessly brilliant band. With more to hear with every listen. One of the few that keep my heavy metal loving heart pumping . Or words like that 🤘

[@achewy80]

The no blinking aspect of this video is what makes it unnerving

[@dylanvasicadrums]

My 50+ year old dad loves this song so much

[@QingWeiSanguine]

I don't know why , but this is one of my favourite songs by them

[@M21xLEGEND]

Reminds me of Parkway Drive - Wishing Wells videowise

[@losrguitarplayr1]

YES!!! More In Flames PLEASE!!!

[@guteborn3208]

Welcome to In Flames! Now you opened the Pandoras box to 30 years of fantastic songs. See ya on the other side. Great reaction by the way. In Flames we trust.

[@atradventuresoutside8621]

I heard the album when it first came out but only recently watch this video. What makes it good for me is its simplicity.

[@НикитаКиняев-ф4о]

Thx a lot for reaction! Pls more IN Flames. Great band any more

[@dadsbedtimestories2940]

There is an instrumental version of this song called the arcade version, it's done in 8bit format and sounds like the most epic boss fight on the NES

[@crispy_338]

I fucking love this song

[@xenogenesis9635]

Of Monsters and Men basically made an entire album with videos like that. One of the actors is actually the Icelandic voice of Mr. Krabs.

[@heath6015]

For a one shot video check out Scardust - the evolution of a Disney Princess but she's Metal. Or for an actual song by them check out concrete cages

[@AgeofJP]

I am dying to see a Singer react to a song from SOAPF because the melodic scream vocal style he uses there is the most difficult vocal style I know...Deliver Us and All For Me have the strongest vocal performances imo, but the whole album is full of him seemlessly transitioning between screams and cleans and the aformentioned mixed style (mostly the latter). I have heard other mixed techniques, usually a balance 50-50 between screams and cleans but his style feels like giving 100-100 as you have to pour out your soul with every line...one song in that style and I'm exhausted af, trying two in a row literally gets me light-headed midway into the 2nd. Also I just realized they probably put the glitching effect over the actor's eyes to make it seem he doesn't blink (at least some of the times)

[@frostee6555]

Now you'll have to react to the older stuff as well such as The Quiet Place, Clayman, Only for the weak, Cloud Connected and The Hive

[@MrGox]

My favorite In Flames song imo. Cant decide between My Sweet Shadow and this one. Love the reaction

[@amjan]

The actor in the video is NOT the singer.

[@kryos0627]

I was confused by her too, that isn't Anders Friden.

[@petrivanhalakka9783]

Ni it isot. He is Swedish actor. Ihave seen one movie.

[@Exaar]

In Flames is one of those bands where people are always arguing if 'old' In Flames or 'new' In Flames is better- this tends to happen when a band has been around for almost 30 years and had multiple roster changers in that time. I've been a fan since the late 90s, and I have to say, I Am Above is one of my all-time favorite songs by them, new or old. It's a great choice!

[@prestonrodd7555]

Would love to see you react to the band AVATAR and their song Napalm (Live from Ages) OR Let it Burn (Loudwire Exclusive)!

[@mrweatherman89]

I've been hoping to see Hail the Apocalypse by Avatar... hopefully sometime soon.

[@frostee6555]

Let it burn is a banger for sure

[@Tedd0r]

A kind of similar approach in terms of video (more personal even) is „wishing wells“ from parkway drive. You should check it out! In that video the lead singer is also the person in the video.

[@arandomwrath9171]

Love in flames; "here until forever" is my favorite. "In this life" second favorite, honestly probably my favorite those two are very close.

[@danielmcfly85]

The video idea was pretty close to a video which came out about a half year earlier, if I'm correct. I mean "Parkway Drive" wirh the song "wishing wells". Both songs are stunning, and the only biggest difference to this one is that" In Flames" used an actor for the video while Parkway Drive showed their real singer in the clip. Maybe you can check out Wishing Wells by Parkway Drive, too.😊

[@stefanodalvecchio5873]

Great band great song!

[@fabiorobertonascimento8370]

I simply love this song!!! Ilove In Flames!!!

[@Molod_SuN]

Thanks 🙏🏻 love that song

[@Sencess]

Best music video ever made

[@stallionduck8402]

You really need to react to their song "Stay With Me", it packs such an emotional punch it's incredible!

[@lucasbosco3473]

Thinking the Actor that appears in the video is the singer is a common misconception with I Am abocve, everyone i've seen reacting to this video for the first time thinks the actor is the singer but neither the singer or the band appears in the video, just the song.

[@oCarbon0]

In Flmes Meet your maker!

[@jimronnysrlie8601]

Not sure if you've heard It, bt In flames - Stay with me is one of the best ballads they have. It's worth a listen imo

[@davidelmquist8670]

On to Meet your maker next!

[@escwanz8307]

🔥🔥

[@marcustidholm6775]

Please react to Meet your maker, you will love it! And get to see the band. 😅

[@escwanz8307]

Next reaction , In flames - meet your maker 🙏🔥

[@Aimtofflan]

You should check out older In Flames stuff, anything from The Jester Race, Whoreacle or Clayman or Colony

[@TheMetawishmaster]

I'm wonder which song came first, I Am Above or Stay With Me? :)

[@mtybennington]

In flames - voices

[@Shredder12]

Check out a Dialogue in B Flat Minor by In Flames. They have so many great ones to choose from.

[@bostons_departed3631]

Yea, I didn’t listen to this song in rehab over and over again while getting sober and dealing with my ex having an abortion without me knowing while I was in rehab because of said pregnancy. Ahhh good times.

[@nils_ohne_e]

Hey Ray, thank you for your Reactions! I really love them. If you got time could you react to In Flames - Stay with me? I would enjoy seeing your reacting to this, cause it´s totally different from what they usually do, but still perfectly fits their style. See you soon :)

[@ragde2163]

❤❤❤

[@ElFimpo]

Seen then 7 times. Expect the expected.

[@gustavodelgado6778]

Start listening and react to more In flames please 🙏

[@alwaysbreezy37]

Legends 🙌

[@KOMA6166]

You gotta do the new TesseracT song Legion!!!

[@Fenthule]

Their fry screams are definitely very clearly annunciated. It takes a ton of practice to get to that point, as fry screams are naturally just white noise, you have to learn how to place the consonants to get it to sound like actual words. I've been listening to them on and off for years, sometimes I fall out of metal for a bit but when I come back they're always there lol

[@_david.jefferson]

Hello, I always follow your reactions and I'm Brazilian lol, this song is very strong in translation, it talks about a person who literally lost love in God and no longer believes in him, I'm starting to learn a little English because of your videos hahaha , reacts to the song Jaded by spiritbox, hugs.

[@psc69nyc]

Not the actual singer. Just an actor who did a great job.

[@alfinstory1835]

Next in Flames STAY WITH ME

[@Autofire80]

This guy below me knows what the fuck is up

[@david_jsx]

Please react to more In Flames 🔥🥺

[@BudekSaja]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@Droglakahn]

Thats a Swedisg celbrity doing the video,its not the one who sings.

[@79jcandy]

Wayfarer for me 1 out of 100 songs they got swim, satellites and astronauts , cloud connection, and many many more.

[@79jcandy]

I ment connected stupid auto correct

[@Aleks-fj5tj]

Это просто пипец)Это не Киркоровы с Пресняковыми и прочей хренью попсовой.Если понял рок -это навсегда😎🤟

[@justinisaacs9617]

Thats not even the lead singer either. But his performance was intense.

[@kylec1411]

in flames is special somehow and i cant put my finger on why.

[@TakemuraGoro]

Geniously video, isn't it?

[@felipecampos3045]

love in flames, do more please, check out reroute to remain next :D

[@Jamesblonde1976]

Did you notice he didnt blink even once?

[@ktay7382]

Wishing well by parkway drive, similar video visuals

[@barbaferam4762]

E... would like to hear a few words about the lyrics, which I understand, maybe only partially. The text is complex and deep, I think the main part of this work is the text and its play on words.

[@ktay7382]

Go see em live

[@Admiral_Golbez]

Would love to see you check out the song Ordinary Story by them!

[@Carnivourus]

The singer is Anders Friden and this video... well is an AI generation of an actor, why you have all the imperfections in the video. It's on purpose. And yes. In Flames with Anders as a singer prides themselves as actually singing clearly while growling and it's how they distinguish themselves from every other band. Combined with the Nordic melodies or pop influences in their music. Making them easier on most people's ears.

[@coreysuffield]

huh? AI generation was not even really a thing(dall-e 2021) when this video released(2018), it is all an artists graphic manipulation. also some of it is practical make up

[@DrNoxin]

If you like this type of video, you should check out Wishing Wells by Parkway Drive. Same concept, also one shot, one take.

[@wrenbyrd1093]

Loki 😊

[@BudekSaja]

Assalamualaikum Me Indonesia 🤘

[@ВладимирКиселев-й4о]

О чём песня?

[@moises3805]

Evil Jared Leto be like:

[@andyvp006]

"Wishing Wells" by Parkway Drive.. please make a reaction video \m/

[@JohanHaagg]

If you think his pronouciation are good, you should check out Amon Amarth. Johan, their singer, has a very deep growl but the lyrics are still very audioable compared to... well, most death metal bands.

[@jamespillow1214]

Just found your channel a few days ago, dig the vibe. Would love to see ya do some Type O Negative, Love You to Death would be a good one.

[@KillerwhaleTRX]

He from Mr-Robot.....Swedish....

[@megadeth8592]

older in flames next time pleease

[@kryos0627]

You know that person isn't Anders Friden. I'm not sure why you're making it seem that person is the singer, lol?
